Extreme Elvis, Xtian & Frank Moore's Cherotic All-Star Band

November 17, 2001

Burnt Ramen, Richmond, California

Well, this was the period when I was producing a lot of music shows at the infamous illegal underground punk club BURNT RAMEN.  This was the last two acts of a very long show.  Traditionally my band closed the shows.  Also traditionally I cherry picked musicians from the other bands of the night to be in my band.  But this show the musicians kept leaving during the show [the club was in the most dangerous neighborhood].  So at this point when I was the next act, I had no band except for Xtian [aka Christian Lunch] and a flock of nude women.  So in the middle of Extreme Elvis' set [which I consider one of the top five performances of ALL rock 'n' roll history!], I asked Elvis if I could borrow his band.  So our two sets melted together!  Btw, we performed in what normally passed for the GREEN ROOM there because that was where E literally pitched his tent!
